VR-ready micro apartments and VR companions in near future?

December 19, 2016

According to HTC Vive Executive Alvin Wang Graylin, who has recently released his predictions for the next two years of virtual reality, VR-ready micro apartments will hit the real estate market by 2018 and someone will spend 30 days in VR sometime next year. While these are two of his more bold predictions, his presentation at the Unity Vision Summit in Asia earlier this month includes significant strides in VR education use, content development, social media, mainstream marketplace, and other cross industry applications. Graylin also offers caution to the VR industry regarding roadblocks to innovation and technology, including new revenue models, better displays, faster networks, and battery technology.
